    OT: Your favorite retro pinball or video arcade games?

    Loved Asteroids. I have a windows version that I have yet to load on my current PC. I wonder if it would run? Good stuff.

    I hate soccer and won’t watch the World Cup Thread.

    My Instagram algorithm is packed solid with these. At first I enjoyed them. Now I’m beginning to think they are insincere comments creating content in order boost followers. A foreigner amazed at his first visit to Buc Ees is funny the first three or four times. After that, not so much. I’m...

    Beaver Stadium reconstruction thread

    They just upgraded the troughs before last season. At least the ones I used on the East side. They’re now stainless steel.

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

    Strange layout on that block. Odd place for a home like his.

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

    Larry Holmes lives a few blocks from me. Super nice guy. Don’t see him very often any more. Bumped into Mario Andretti at the Verizon store at the mall. He was not pleasant. Saw Sandy Koufax at the grocery store a couple years ago. Apparently lives in Bethlehem in the summer. A friend of...

    This really is a great song

    I have always liked DuranDuran, probably because my HS girlfriend liked them. Seen them a couple times, most recently Halloween 2024. Good show. To this day, I despise The Reflex though. Phil Collins/Genesis is that group for me. Just grew tired of Phil’s voice. Now I listen to it a lot.

    This really is a great song

    This is a good thread. As a child of the MTV era, I really despised the songs in continual rotation. I have a new appreciation for many of them today.

    Not a ship. It was a pier. Cargo ships would dock and unload there. I’ll see if I can link it.

    Had a boss years ago that lived in one of condos that had been converted from an old shipping pier between the Ben Franklin bridge and Penn’s Landing. What an incredible place to live. Always enjoyed visiting him there.

    BGJ sweatshirt

    Different circumstances entirely. And, I’m not a Joebot.

    BGJ sweatshirt

    I classify the sweatshirt slogan as unnecessary. Kind of like the dominate the state line or great to elite or reacting to the fan in the stands or any subtle jabs at Pitt early on. The more these seemingly minor incidents popped up, the less likable he became.
